From how to watch to who's nominated, here's everything you need to know about the 96th Academy Awards.
"On The Red Carpet" is taking you inside one of the most exclusive events of the Oscar season in a new special, "On The Red Carpet at the Oscars Luncheon."After a winter barrage of award shows - the Emmys, the Golden Globes, the Grammys - the grandaddy of them all, the Academy Awards, are around the corner.
Themay be a coronation for "Oppenheimer," which comes in with a leading 13 nominations, though other films, including "Barbie," "Killers of the Flower Moon" and "Poor Things" are in the mix.The Oscars will be held Sunday, March 10, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The ceremony is set to begin at 7 p.m. EDT - one hour earlier than usual - and be broadcast live on ABC. A preshow will begin at 6:30 p.m. EDT. This is your early reminder to set your clocks accordingly - it's the first day of daylight saving time in the U.S.with a cable subscription. You can also watch through services including Hulu Live TV, YouTubeTV, AT&T TV and FuboTV.. That ties him with fellow four-timers Whoopi Goldberg and Jack Lemmon, and leaves Kimmel trailing only Johnny Carson , Billy Crystal and Bob Hope among repeat Oscar hosts. "I always dreamed of hosting the Oscars exactly four times," said Kimmel.are: "American Fiction"; "Anatomy of a Fall"; "Barbie"; "The Holdovers"; "Killers of the Flower Moon"; "Maestro"; "Oppenheimer"; "Past Lives"; "Poor Things"; and "The Zone of Interest."Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" is the frontrunner. Nolan, the best director favorite, is also poised to win his first Oscar. The best actress category could be a nail-biter between Lily Gladstone and Emma Stone . If Gladstone were to win, she would be the first Native American to win an Oscar. Best actor, too, could be a close contest between Cillian Murphy and Paul Giamatti . Both would be first-time winners. Giamatti's co-star Da'Vine Joy Randolph is favored to win best-supporting actress, while Robert Downey Jr. is expected to win best-supporting actor. His closest competition is considered Ryan Gosling for "Barbie."While "Barbie," 2023's biggest box-office hit, comes in with eight nominations, much discussion has revolved around the nominations the film didn't receive. Greta Gerwig was left out of the directing category and Margot Robbie missed on best actress. In those omissions, some have seen reflections of the misogyny parodied in "Barbie," while others have noted the tough reception comedies have historically had at the Oscars. The nominations for "Barbie" include best-adapted screenplay , best supporting actress for America Ferrera and two best song nominees in Billie Eilish's "What Was I Made For" and the Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt composition "I'm Just Ken."Though recent Oscars have been marked by everything from slaps,envelope snafus and controversies over which awards are presented live during the telecast, this year's show comes in with no big changes. All of the awards are to be broadcast live . The academy is adding a new award for best casting, but that trophy won't be presented until the 2026 Oscars.Composer John Williams is nominated for his record 49th best-score Oscar, for "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," and 54th overall. Godzilla is going to the Oscars for the first time, with "Godzilla Minus One" notching a nomination for best visual effects. And for the first time, two non-English language films are up for best picture: the German language Auschwitz drama "The Zone of Interest" and the French courtroom drama "Anatomy of a Fall."Red carpet coverage starts at 1 p.m. ET 10 a.m. PT with"Countdown to Oscars: On The Red Carpet Live."
